Two new shows announced for Concord Pavilion; resident pre-sale April 11

The Concord Pavilion has announced two new shows for the 2015 season. The Boys of Zummer Tour with Fall Out Boy, Wiz Khalifa and Hoodie Allen plays Tuesday, Aug. 4 at 7 p.m. Slipknot's 'Summer's Last Stand Tour' with Lamb of God, Motionless in White and Bullet for My Valentine is slated for Wednesday, Aug. 26 at 6 p.m.

Fall Out Boy tickets are on sale now through livenation.com or ticketmaster.com; Slipknot tickets go on sale Friday, Jan. 30.

Concord residents would ordinarily have been able to purchase presale tickets for these concerts at the Pavilion box office the day before they went on sale to the general public. Unfortunately, the box office is closed for renovation. As an alternative, the Pavilion will hold a limited number of tickets to these concerts in each price range for Concord residents. These tickets will go on sale at the Pavilion Box Office on Saturday, April 11 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Set-aside tickets to the Tony Bennett/Lady Gaga show on May 28 and the Idina Menzel performance on Aug. 7 will also be on sale at that time.

The presale ticket program is one of the benefits for Concord residents included in the new contract between Live Nation and the City of Concord. To participate, residents must bring a utility bill and driver's license (or other government-issued ID) with matching addresses to the box office, located at the entrance to the facility at 2000 Kirker Pass Road. The resident hotline number is (925) 363-5701.
